Horrible allergic reaction
After months of dealing with a horrible allergic reaction on parts of my skin, I finally eliminated every other product but this and realized the Tide was causing my skin rashes. Do not recommend.

Buy !
A MUST in my household . With sensitive skin this is always used in my house. Most detergents have alot of stuff in it as well as fragrance which one isn’t good for the skin nor does it work well for us. The value of this brand is amazing. Depends where you get it but there can be coupons also. Removes stains well and the packaging is easy pour. I usually get the biggest one to get the best value

NO LONGER UNSCENTED !!!
This product is no longer unscented even though it clearly says it is! It is no longer "free and gentle", either! I am currently having an allergic reaction due to this product which has left an unpleasant scent on my clothing. We've used this product for a long time without issue, but this latest bottle has RUINED two full loads of my clothing. I reached out to Tide and they did not appear to take my complaint seriously. There are multiple recent reviews here at Target and other retailers showing that my complaint is not an isolated case! BEWARE AND DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT AGAIN! I KNOW I WILL NOT !!!!!

NOW CONTAINS SCENT!!
The latest bottle we purchased now has a scent to it. Ruined! Will never purchase again. Whatever executive decided to add scent to an unscented/free and clear product should be tossed into a volcano. I’m not the only one- lots of recent reviews at multiple retailers saying the exact same thing. Tide ruined this product.

Thank you for sharing your concerns regarding the scent in the latest bottle of Tide Free & Gentle Liquid. We understand how important it is for our Free & Gentle products to meet your expectations, especially when it comes to fragrance sensitivity. Please know that Tide Free & Gentle is formulated without dyes and perfumes; Although fragrance or perfume is not added to the product, they will have a scent due to their natural smell. Since there's no masking fragrance added to cover this smell, you may notice it before using the product, but it should not transfer to your fabrics after use. Sometimes under unique circumstances, such as prolonged contact with strongly scented products, the product can pick up fragrance from other nearby products. We take product quality very seriously and strive to ensure every item reaches you in perfect condition. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we would like the opportunity to look into this matter further. Please contact our service team at 1-800-879-8433 so we can assist you directly.

Great for newborns skin
I used this mostly for my infants bedding and clothes. He has never had a rash from it and it helps get stains out of his clothes. It is unscented which was best for my son's new skin. I will definitely continue to use this.

Free of irritants
Tide free and gentle laundry detergent is free of any dyes, any perfumes, or scents. This clear liquid detergent is very gentle and leaves our clothes feeling clean. Occasionally, I'll add a scent booster when using this detergent to give clothes a subtle, fresh linen scent.

Clean
One of the best laundry soaps my family uses with a few of my kids skin allergies. There’s no added ingredients that might break any of my kids out and is gentle to use in the washer.

My #1 Laundry Detergent
Tide is my go-to laundry detergent brand because I know it cleans very well. This free and gentle version is no exception. No matter what wash cycle or water temperature you use, your clothes will be super clean. Over time there is no build up of any residues, which is one less thing for me to worry about. I have very sensitive skin and some laundry detergent fragrances really irritate my skin so I always know free & gentle without a scent will be a safe option for me.

COMPLAINT ABOUT TARGET
Please read review to see this is NOT a poor review for the product but a warning about Target’s customer service & policy. Part of my order was for laundry detergent. It arrived leaking inside the bag & all the way through the cardboard box it was sent in. It was a complete mess. At least half the liquid was spilled from the bottle. I was told the only option for return was bringing a dripping leaking messy jug of laundry detergent in my car & in to a Target store or to a post office. I was asking for a prepaid return label for Fed Ex or USPS to pick it up from my door. If this was an item I ordered & changed my mind about of course that is my responsibility to bring back. If it is an item that Target shipped wrong that should be their responsibility to pick up from me, send a new one or refund without return. Why should the customer have to pay for gas, time waiting in line, & energy to return a product that arrived in bad condition? (see picture)

This really is so GENTLE!!
I have a lot of clothing that is very delicate, made of materials like wool and silk. I always hesitate to wash these items with regular detergent because of the dyes and scents. This is the first detergent that I've felt comfortable using on my gentle clothes. I also live with a few people who have sensitivities and allergies to dyes and scents. This detergent has been a heaven sent.

Just like tide but sensitive
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product for babies, those with sensitive skin, and those sensitive to fragrance and dyes. I love Tide, and this product was great, especially for my family members that have sensitive skin. Personally for my laundry, I love the clean soft feeling this gave, but I had to add my scent boosters back in. When they say no fragrance, they mean not even a soapy smell. This is a great Tide option, but I'll save this one specifically for my family that needs it and I'll stick to my very fragranced soaps. I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

Fresh and Simple
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this detergent. It works well, it smells fresh and clean and it doesn’t irritate my skin at all. My clothes always come out of the dryer smelling clean without being overwhelmingly scented. I also really enjoy the gentleness of the formula.
